Right from the start, I loved the packaging! It's unique for an eyeshadow product, and it really attracted my attention. I love the font too! But now, the makeup: I use this as an eyeshadow even though it's technically a pigment. It has an amazingly smooth feel when applied and its very pearly, just as the name promises. I have the lavender shade, and it's pigmentation is amazing. It can be applied lightly for a slightly purple, very pearly accent. Conversely, it can be layered to create a vivid lilac that's shimmery and blends beautifully. Since it's a loose powder, it's also great to mix with a liquid highlighter and some primer for a little extra something. Can't wait to try other shades! -
e.l.f. Countouring Brush
This brush is amazing! It's a very thick and dense brush because it's made for contouring. It can create hard lines and angular shapes while still blending them well due to its shape and density of bristles. It's so soft too, and easy to hold. Also... +
This brush is amazing! It's a very thick and dense brush because it's made for contouring. It can create hard lines and angular shapes while still blending them well due to its shape and density of bristles. It's so soft too, and easy to hold. Also works well for applying highlighter, which I use it for often. I've tried out really high quality brushes from high end brands, and honestly, I can't tell the difference between them and this product. Save your money for the makeup and buy this brush instead of its higher end counterparts. -

I had high hopes for this product, because I usually love elf! Unfortunately, this lipstick wasn't my favourite, and here's why: It comes off so easily. Accidentally touching my face or even taking a sip of water isn't okay with this lipstick. I wish it was more long lasting! I also don't like the pigmentation. The shades I have tried are Rich Red and Cranberry. The red is so bright, and so primary. I'm sorry to say that it reminds me a lot of clown makeup... Not what I was going for. Cranberry is slightly better but it's still such a "crayola colour". Like, you could find a crayon in the 12 pack that is the same colour. It's hard to pinpoint exactly why they look so much like children's art supplies, but it definitely brings down the sophistication. I wish the shades were more sophisticated and creative. Sorry to leave a bad review, but it had to be done. -

love this mascara! It's the one I use daily, and I get compliments when I wear it. My lashes are naturally long, but the formula is still able to build on top of my natural lash and create thin, fibrous extensions. Sometimes, I find it to be a little much and end up removing some product from the ends of my lashes. It darkens wonderfully, and I love the slim applicator bristles. There's something about it that just makes my eyes pop, and I haven't been able to find that in other mascaras. -

Love this mask! It's well saturated, leaves my skin smooth and moisturized. I use it before bed so that excess serum (after mask removal) can be absorbed during the night, and I wake up looking bright and awake (which is a change from how I usually look haha). Smells great. -
Physician Formula Happy Booster Glow & Mood Boosting Blush

So sad to report that I experienced no difference in mood when applying this. As a regular blush however, it's really nice. Cute packaging, love the hearts in the pan. It's very pigmented so a little goes a long way, and I love it's subtle shimmer. You can get a natural looking pink tone by swiping your brush across all the hearts or choose a shade of pink since the hearts of different colours are slightly separated from one another. It's long lasting and doesn't look unnatural. Overall, though, it didn't boost my mood like it claimed to. I looked into the science behind the claim, and wasn't overly impressed. Not likely to repurchase. -

I have super oily hair - it's just one of those facts of life. I would never consider not washing my hair daily, because I experience oily buildup six hours after showering. But with this dry shampoo, I can skip one day of showering. That's how good it is. I have the unscented one, and I love it so much. Since oil, and not sweat, is my problem it works out perfectly. It doesn't leave buildup or residue like some dry shampoos and leaves my hair light and fluffy. Gotta love it. -

This palette is an essential for me now that I've tried it. It's so. so. so. amazing! All the colours are extremely wearable, the perfect amount of shimmer, and blend flawlessly. Shades can be worn together or layered for an even brighter look. It's long lasting and beautiful. I would definitely buy this for any highlighter lover in my life. A little goes such a long way, too, which is always amazing. -

This highlighter is amazing! I have it in the shades blush gems and moonlight pearls. Blush gems gives me a rosy glow while moonlight pearls is better for a more dewy highlight. In general, I think blush gems is more like a shimmery blush than a highlighter, but I don't mind. Moonlight pearls is one of my go-to products when I want a very defined strobing quality. I find that this product is average in terms of how much needs to be applied to get the look you want. It blends well, and I often use it in combination with a liquid highlighter for that extra pop. Scraping off a small portion of the product and mixing it with my liquid illuminator is my favourite way to wear this, because it adds another layer to the highlighting effect. -
